Morning Lyrics - Sting

Naked, you are simple as one of your hands, 

smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round: 

you have moon-lines, apple-pathways: 

naked, you are slender as a naked grain of wheat. 

Naked, you are blue as a night in Cuba; 

you have vines and stars in your hair; 

naked, you are spacious and yellow 

as summer in a golden church. 

Naked, you are tiny as one of your nails- 

curved, subtle, rosy, till the day is born 

and you withdraw to the underground world,

as if down a long tunnel of clothing and of chores: 

your clear light dims, gets dressed - drops its leaves- 

and becomes a naked hand again.
